ENTERPRISE UPS Stormwater Outfall, Enterprise, Alabama | United States

ENTERPRISE UPS is a stormwater outfall located at 1550 Parker Lane in Enterprise, Coffee County, Alabama. This facility manages stormwater runoff from the UPS distribution center, operating under the regulatory framework of the US Clean Water Act and EPA NPDES MS4 permits. As a Phase II small MS4, it is subject to stormwater pollution prevention requirements. Stormwater outfalls like this one typically handle runoff from impervious surfaces such as parking lots and rooftops. In Alabama, stormwater management is regulated by the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (ADEM), which enforces NPDES permits for industrial and municipal sources. This outfall plays a key role in managing urban runoff from the UPS facility, helping to prevent flooding and reduce pollutant loads to local waterways. The facility's location in Enterprise, a city in southeastern Alabama, means it contributes to the protection of regional water quality in the Choctawhatchee River watershed.

The stormwater outfall discharges into local waterways that are part of the Choctawhatchee River basin, which supports diverse aquatic habitats. Urban runoff from industrial and commercial areas can carry pollutants such as sediment, oil, and heavy metals. Regulatory compliance under the NPDES MS4 program requires implementation of best management practices to minimize these impacts and protect downstream water quality.
